Wordless Wednesday: Bert & Ernie Awaken

Ernie's Delicious Treat

Ernie: I smell something yummy!
Ernie: OOoooohh! Some organic almond butter!
Ernie: I can clean my plate... glass.
Bert: Did you leave any for me?
Ernie: Sorry, Bert. It's all gone.

Bert & Ernie's New Home

Bert and Ernie just got a new home! It is a 17 gallon frameless aquarium, so they have more room to run and play and have fun.

They both like to burrow. This stuff is called Carefresh Ultra litter. They cannot use our cat litter. I do not know why!

Here is a movie of Bert and Ernie the first few minutes in their bigger home. If you watch until the end, they do something a little bit funny!

Meet Our New Buddies!

Here I am meeting my brand new buddies for the first time. Can you guess what they are?

Gerbils! Meet Bert and Ernie. They are just about 2 months old. They don't eat good foods, just nuts and grains and boring stuff like that. Oh and they like to chew on sticks.

Ernie is more active than Bert. He is already running and running on his fancy wheel.

Bert is black, but he has little white gloves and a white bib. I guess he is a tuxedo gerbil! He is a little bit friendlier so far, and already climbs into my Mommeh's palm.

I think Ernie wants to be a circus gerbil! I like the puff at the end of his tail.
Harley got to meet Bert and Ernie, too. Harley was only a little bit skerred. We are only allowed to watch Bert and Ernie inside the cage, on account of we might accidentally get too rough with them.
Welcome to our family, Bert and Ernie!
